The impact of internal displacement on destination communities: Evidence from the Colombian conflict

Consequences of forced migration: A survey of recent findings

“…When forced migrants have some control over their location choice, such as internally displaced persons, other work has used instrumental variables regressions. The distance to geographically available border crossings (Del Carpio and Wagner, 2015;Akgündüz et al, 2018), pre-existing networks of the affected migrant group in the receiving area (Morales, 2018), or the degree of violence in migrants' home region (Calderón-Mejía and Ibáñez, 2016) have been used to generate plausibly exogenous variation in the inflow shares of refugees.…”

Trading with the Enemy: The Impact of Conflict on Trade in Non-Conflict Areas

“…While most of the literature focuses on the impact of direct exposure to violence, notable exceptions include the literature on the impact of refugees and displacement on destination communities (Calderón-Mejía and Ibáñez, 2015;Morales, 2018) and the spillovers of wars for frontier scientific activity (Iaria, Schwarz, and Waldinger, 2018). Most closely to our work, studies have shown that conflict may induce ethnic tensions which then reduces the productivity of inter-ethnic teams (Hjort, 2014) and increases discrimination in various critical institutions, such as banks (Fisman, Sarkar, Skrastins, and Vig, 2018), courts (Shayo and Zussman, 2011), and stock exchanges (Moser, 2012).…”

A Spatial Model of Internal Displacement and Forced Migration

“…Engel and Ibáñez (2007) and Ibáñez and Vélez (2008) study the determinants of displacement. Morales (2018) studies the impact of displacement on wages in the host communities. Depetris-Chauvin and Santos (2018) analyze the effect of internal displacement on rental prices in host cities.…”
